Classes

Copper Plate Etching with Chine Collé 

Saturdays, Nov. 7 and 14, 2026, 10 a.m.–1 p.m.

Cost: $92 for non-members or $74 for Museum members

Explore the traditional art of copper plate etching in this two-session workshop. Students will learn how to use a mordant to etch original designs into a 4" × 5" copper plate, then ink and print their plates using a hand-crank etching press. The workshop also introduces chine collé, a technique that incorporates colored papers into the print, adding rich layers of color, texture, and pattern. To make the most of studio time, participants are encouraged to bring a prepared 4" × 5" drawing or design to use as their starting point.

Watercolor Monotype with Stencils

Saturday, Dec. 12, 2026, 10 a.m.–2 p.m.

Cost: $80 for non-members or $64 for Museum members

Create painterly images, from loose and gestural to detailed and controlled, by drawing on a plastic plate with watercolor, water-soluble colored pencils, and water-soluble crayons, then transferring the image to paper using an etching press. Stencils add an exciting way to incorporate repeatable shapes and layered compositions while making it easy to print with multiple colors. Participants should bring several loose sketches or drawings to use as inspiration. Finished image size will be approximately 8" × 10".
